Dry Suits

Alpine skiing skis with the help of ascension belts must reliably reach the top of every mountain and also their handling shall meet the requirements in different snow conditions. The first basic parameter is the width of skid. The skid is wider, the Congress when there is a better lift and skis are thus easier to control (this applies especially for deep snow). Storage skialp following parameters are the material of which they are made. The most commonly used production of sandwich structures made of light, strong materials but it type carbon fiber, titanium, aramid, ... that are associated with different types of wood - Paulownia, beech, poplar, elder, ash, and the like. The next parameter is mounting touring bands for sklznicu skis. Pin, for each type of alpine skiing ski individually. Racing skis are equipped with grooves for gripping strips on the nose and tail. Some models have the tips of the skis again made holes on the crowded bands belt. For other types of skis, the strips adhere using metal or plastic buckles.

The parameters in the selection of skis Alpine skiing

Construction material - notably the wood sandwich construction and solid material types - carbon, aramid, titanium ...

Radius - normally it comprised within the range of 13 up to 17 m. When freeride skis is more. Generally radii are selected to R15 m. It applies this simple rule: first you do a long arc with a smaller radius with lysis as lysis of the short curve having the larger radius. This is an important factor in terms of safety and handling skis, especially if you train and prefers crowded ski slopes, especially at weekends.

Dimensions - noting the sidecut skis on tiptoe in the middle of the ski and on foot (eg. Peak: 112 mm, center: 75 mm, base 100 mm) - these dimensions will help you when choosing. The general rule is that the larger the width of the ski dimension is, the more stable the ski in the downhill.

Length of skis - for men is recommended in the range of approximately 165 to 180 cm; Women are optimal length of 146-160 cm.

Weight - weight, for each type of alpine skiing ski variable. Weight in ski racing is about 700 g (1 ski). Classic alpine skiing skis are already a little harder.

Personally, you can invest in ultra-light models of the type - Hagan, Skitrab, LaSportiva . Skis of this type are very light yet at the same time naturally strong and solid to allow you to ski in the toughest trails in open terrain. Most frequently in these models invest alpinists who like to participate in the regatta. The low weight, which is about one pound and a half-great for hikes up steep terrain. The weight also affects Cutting of the ski - that is, the ski is more cut out, the more the logical easier.

Classic alpine skiing skis (LaSportiva Fischer SKYLOTEC, Völkl) designed especially for ski tours, skimountainering offer mostly general recreational skialpinism looking for a compromise between the walking and skiing.

Skis for freeride ( Black Diamond, Scott Fischer Black Crows ) offers mainly for advanced riders, who already have some experience with the movement in open terrain. It is also very important to get used to a greater weight of such storage, and also as well as a decent width. By purchasing these skis are guaranteed great comfort during lyžby in deep powder and off piste.
